If socks are your thing, then Madelinetosh Twist Light is the yarn for you! With a blend of superwash merino and nylon, which adds tons of durability, this 4ply/sockweight yarn has three plies of yarn twisted to add even more strength. Amazingly, it's still soft enough to make shawls and any other garments with a very smooth quality. Twist Light wears better than the other MadTosh sockweight yarns and dyes slightly more vibrantly as the nylon grabs onto the colour.
With 384 metres per skein, one skein is more than enough yardage to complete a pair of socks (unless you have big feet!), and two skeins can complete a full-sized shawl.

Please Note: Dyed by hand in small batches, Madelinetosh yarns do not come in dye lots. The beauty of hand-dyed yarns is that each skein is a unique work of art, so please be aware that there can be a variation in colouring, hue, and saturation, even within the same dye batch. We suggest alternating skeins to blend any differences in colour.

Madelinetosh Hue of the Moment
Madelinetosh already have a pretty extensive library of colours, but there's no such thing as too many!. This is where their Hue of the Moment comes in. Each month they debut a new hand-dyed shade (or shades!), and all of their Hue of the Moment colours for 2024 are available dyed to order.
The Hue of the Moment for July 2024 is Emotional Support Water Bottle: inspired by water bottle colours – and their growing collection of same – Madtosh created this splashy colour as a quencher for July. Emotional Support Water Bottle, a bright woobie of a hue that celebrates our hydration status and status consciousness in covetable shades of aqua, bubble gum, grape, & tangerine.
Blends breathtakingly with Rose, Dubrovnik, Ken-Ergy and Voodoo. Shawl pictured is Hydration Station by Lena Skvagerson.
How the dyed-to-order service works
The colours shown here are Madelinetosh's Core 150, Hues of the Moment, plus a selection of other popular colours. If the colour you want isn't listed here please contact us as we can arrange for any of the colours in their current range to be dyed to order on any base.
Madelinetosh's online retail store is currently unable to ship to Australia, as the United States Postal Service has suspended international mail acceptance for Australia due to impacts related to the COVID-19 pandemic and other unrelated service disruptions.
Dyed to order means that after you place an order with us, we will pass it on to Madelinetosh. If they don't have it in stock, they then expertly hand dye your colour choice, which makes each skein unique and special just for you.
Once your order is ready, it will be included in our regular shipment of our in-stock bases. Deliveries to us arrive every four to six weeks.
Included in the price is a surcharge imposed by Madelinetosh for the dye-to-order service.
Refunds
Please be aware that we are unable to refund any preorders of Madelinetosh due to change of mind. Refunds are only able to be given if the yarn is faulty.
If the colour differs slightly from the image, it is not a fault. Due to the differing nature of each base, colours will vary from base to base, but as Madelinetosh prides themselves on their quality control process we are confident that what you receive will be the correct colour.
